will this work with auto body primer or paint for patch repairs?

I've never used it for anything except my iron railings and just don't know. If no other Amazon user can answer, I'd email or call the company.

If you use a good primer before you paint, it should be okay. I recommend Stix primer by Benjamin Moore. I work in a hardware store that sells paint, and this is a good product for your project.

Used it to repair small cracks on the vinyl portion (sides) of a leather car seat about 1 month ago. Holding up well in spite of frigid temps. We used 3M "blue" masking tape to hold the larger cracks together while the sealant set, then pealed off carefully.

Yes it will. It's the same concept as polishing a car. I use this when I'm doing my drum shells which are sometimes stained, dyed or painted and them topped off with clear coats.

Dr. Ann, I think this would work fine on applying and buffing off car polish. I used it to buff off wood floor wax on a butcher block table top. Use one pad to apply and a different one to buff. Thanks,John

Absolutely! Today I was polishing a car with both single stage black enamel and lacquer and it works exceedingly well. Even using a wool pad, you would be impressed at how nicely it finishes. As others state, you will need to follow with M205 or something to refine the marks left from compounding. In other words, it is not a one-step product. Worked *carefully* with a microfiber applicator or towel, it can be used by hand, but I would only recommend this in spot applications.

Depends on what you have. If your paint is faded or in bad shape it wont matter. If your looking at a new paint job, it adds depth and gloss to your base color. For a touch up for scratches you'd want to use clear to blend in the repair. I don't however recommend this brand for anything other than small repairs. IT has to much reducer and Flashes (dries) to fast. Normally a fast drying paint is what you want but this stuff is drying as soon as it leaves the gun.

Yes. It will work with some practice in thinning and spaying (to manufacturer's specs) Most automotive finishes (both 1 & 2 part) are pretty thin when sprayed, and this gun works great for fine finishing. I've sprayed high end lacquer-based paints with it...Even though it's NOT recommended for oil or lacquer-based paints because of the thinners... They melt the seals after a point. And I've just replaced the nozzle portion. But like TiGor also said, automotive finishes (especially 2 part) are the worst for your health, and should be sprayed in controlled environments with air-supplied respirators and suits. So really read the warnings on the paints! Yes.

It should take off enough clearcoat and paint to be able to lightly sand in preparation for paint. This is strong stuff and should only be used with the proper PPE.

I haven't tried that. This product is a powder, kind of like barkeepers friend, comet, baking soda, etc. It's a mild abrasive, a polish, and there are polishes specifically for buffing cars etc, I'd probably go with an automotive product just to be sure.

It won't work. Just like the epoxy. .. The surface needs a deep etching before painting. Otherwise it will just peel off. Plus the epoxy is stronger than the paint. So putting a weaker product in a high wear area will fail even faster. The solution is using the high mileage epoxy clear coat over the standard epoxy. Then it won't peel under the tires

I used this product to repair a small tear on a leather sofa seat. The adhesive part is very strong and remained flexible after several months of daily use. I also used the backer cloth supplied, it pretty hefty. Color matching was a bit tricky, but the repair blended in OK, after some trial and error. Should work on car door, although I'm not sure what the temp changes will do to it. This product does use heat setting step to finish up, but not sure about cold.

I used it on a child's riding toy. Has withstood the rigors of that. Just make sure each coat is light and allowed to completely dry. I did not use a primer.

Yes that's what I used it for. It's a very small can of interior paint. I used it to cover some repaired drywall.

I don't believe that it work very well in that application, you would be better off using something like this I believe: http://www.amazon.com/Performix-11603-6-Synthetic-Plasti-Dip-Coating/dp/B0000DD1PF/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1397503787&sr=8-1&keywords=tool+handle+dip

On a newer car I would use the M205 Polish. The compound I use on correcting the paint. ie swirls, scratches, waterspots etc

i have used this on latex paint with great success and ease. i have cleaned, stripped and prepped my lawn mower deck with this which was powder coated and baked, once i stripped the motor and all other items that would tear the disk or block the removal process it took longer than the latex paint but it worked, it removed the corrosion with ease. one disk did the entire 42 inch deck. i still use the disk on latex. have patience and let the machine do the work don't try to rush it. i have never tried it on an automobile.
